Forced To Separate.
Down from the plane the weather was still rainy. David brought one big umbrella for himself and Jessica.
Behind them was Daniel, who was under the same umbrella with Kim’s grandfather. Jessica was still struggling to talk to the two people behind her. For about two hours on the plane dhe did not say a word to his brother and grandfather.
Now they immediately took a private car, then headed to one of the apartments owned by the Kim family in Central Jakarta.
Arriving at the apartment David took Jessica into his room.
“You can’t cry anymore, now you take a break and forget about your problems for a while,” David begged to persuade his younger sister. He couldn’t just shut up. Jessica would feel alone if he didn’t do anything.
“David is out now!” Jessica asked her very attentive sister to come out of her room.
“You promised you wouldn’t cry!” the man stared at his sister intently. “It’s no use crying, you know you’re not the only one suffering! Me and brother Daniel are the same, we are both also fighting for something, but we are also not going to fight for now we have to take grandpa’s heart. I give you advice, you and Lexi should also take grandpa’s heart, don’t rebel! It will only make Grandpa angry and urge you!” he did not want Jessica to feel hopeless.
“David, come out now, I want to be alone!” Jessica opened the door hoping her brother would come out of the room soon.
“Well, I will leave the room! Good night, do not cry and do not sleep nights. Got it!” David got up and immediately left Jessica’s room.
Then, the woman immediately closed the door and did not forget to lock it.
Jessica was alone in her own room. She walked to the window and saw the view of Jakarta City tonight. Lots of skyscrapers and sparkling lights. Although it was raining, it seemed to understand her sad mood. Jessica tried to smile. It felt like tears have dried up bemoaning her story with Lexi.
Should she run away tomorrow? It was like being alone because she couldn’t contact anyone. All her phones were confiscated. Then, Jessica decided to find the grandfather to take his cell phone back.

Grandpa Kim and his two grandsons were sitting in the family room. They were discussing something very important, which they deliberately discussed when Jessica was not around.
“So how did you take care of it?” their grandfather asked with his eyes fixed on Daniel.
“Yes, maybe the divorce papers have been received by his secretary Arsene!” Daniel said, then took a cup of moccacino on the table and gulped it.
“Good, you never let grandfather down,” their grandfather praised and smiled with satisfaction.
David, who had just heard about the divorce, rounded his eyes. If Jessica knew, she would feel sad.
“Wait, did Elsa find out about the divorce receding?” David stared at Daniel and his grandfather alternately.
“No, Elsa doesn’t know it.” Daniel replied as if it was something Elsa could accept with a wide chest.
” Daniel, isn’t that so outrageous! All this time we knew Elsa and Lexi loved each other. I don’t think they should have to separate. That will hurt Elsa!” David, who until recently was the only person who sided with Elsa, objected to the divorce papers which were now on Lexi’s side.
“David, have you forgotten who killed our parents? You better not interfere! The divorce papers have been received by Lexi,” Daniel replied, not too concerned about what was said by David.
“But, they love each other,” David said.
“You don’t have to argue anymore, Lexi and Elsa should be divorced. Now you all have to rest, tomorrow is not a short day besides the memorial service at the grave, we will also go to the foundation to check the charity activities,” their grandfather said, who was very satisfied with what had happened lately.
David and Daniel were silent.
“Grandpa will go to sleep now!” He said goodnight and immediately rushed to the room. The middle-aged man was resting in his room.
Now in the family room there were only Daniel and David. The older brother looked engrossed in enjoying drinks and snacks, while David was still staring intently at his brother. He didn’t know if he agreed with Grandpa Kim.
” why don’t you defend Elsa at all, why do you just obey Grandpa!” David protested when they were just the two of them, he was a little brave to express his opinion.
“It’s not about Lexi and Elsa loving each other. The accident was caused by Samuel Ricardo. All the evidence Lexi brought was cruel. Grandpa can’t report it because there is a lack of evidence. But Grandpa is very sure if the accident was intentional by Samuel Ricardo.” Daniel won what he believed in.
“How can you be so sure if the evidence we found doesn’t exist!” David growled.
“You know, the perpetrator must have destroyed the evidence!” Daniel very confidently said as if Samuel Ricardo was the culprit.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
“You should not accuse without evidence, if Grandpa and you’s accusations are not true then the love of Lexi and Elsa is the victim.” David looked down, how can a couple who love each other be separated, then forced to divorce.
“David, are you going to keep arguing about this, never mind! Elsa and Lexi are desperate to get a divorce. Elsa deserves better than Lexi. You should understand that!” Daniel sipped his drink until there was nothing left. Then, he followed the grandfather from his seat and immediately walked to his room to rest.
David took a deep breath of relief at his father’s death. He decided to go out for a while. All the events of the day made him feel exhausted and frustrated.
Jessica, who had been eavesdropping on the conversation of the three men, walked to her room. She became more determined to escape. How could the grandfather make herself and Lexi divorced?
No matter how much she tried to close her eyes tonight, she still couldn’t sleep. Lexi, that guy’s face just kept going through her head. What happens to Lexi if he finds out about the divorce papers? Jessica couldn’t imagine it. She was afraid that Lexi would misunderstand.
She was afraid that her husband would think that it was she who had agreed to their divorce.
At that moment, Jessica decided to run away. After completion of the funeral, David would help her.
Jessica wiped away tears. The next morning, she went to hrt sister’s room to tell him about her plans.
